Seeking guidance: In Marathon we have limited number of swabs. Soon (in the next week or so) people will begin to ask to be "cleared to go back to work". The guidance I can find in other places is cleared when "no symptoms and negative swab"... This is not possible currently.

More of these, please.
In Norway, Prime Minister Erna Solberg just held a press conference specifically for children.
For half an hour, she and her team answered questions submitted by kids across the country.
She told them it was normal to be scared but that everything would be okay.

For me the trick to dealing with impostor syndrome is realizing that what it really means is things are going MUCH better than they should be; definitely keep doing what you’re doing because you’re having a great run so far

Research on the @Space_Station is so crucial for humanity to understand ourselves and the universe we live in. It's why we built the ISS. It's why since 2010, 70%+ of crew time is allocated to experiments. ~30% remainder is for ops & maintenance, training, health, etc.
In two days, @Astro_Christina’s nearly 1-year mission will be history. During this year, she participated in many NASA Human Research Program studies. 🔬 Here’s what she did and why it’s important: nasa.gov/sites/default/files…
